Walking directions to Hotel Belle Arti (with map)

The
Hotel Belle
Arti's name pays homage to the Gallerie dell'Accademia art museum, which is
a few doors away from the hotel on the south bank of the Grand Canal. The
three-star Belle Arti, like other hotels on the Rio Rio Terà Antonio Foscarini,
has a pleasant setting facing a tree-lined street where you're likely to see
aging buskers playing violins (often badly) in the warmer months.

How to reach the Hotel Belle Arti from the Zattere
airport-boat stop:

As you leave the Alilaguna
Linea Blu airport boat's floating
pier at Zattere, head for the Rio Terà Antonio Foscarini, the wide street
that heads inland from the Zattere waterfront.

In a minute or two, you'll see the Hotel Belle Arti on your
left.

From the San Basilio cruise terminal:

Exit the cruise terminal via the main doors and walk
straight ahead to the wooden bridge.

Cross the bridge and continue walking along the Zattere,
which is the wide pedestrian promenade next to the Giudecca Canal.

After five minutes or so, you'll reach a stone bridge, the
Ponte Lungo. Cross the bridge and keep walking past two churches.

Turn left just after the second church (the Gesuati). Walk
inland on the Rio Terà Antonio Foscarini, the wide street
that heads inland from the Zattere waterfront.

In a minute or two, you'll see the Hotel Belle Arti on your
left.

From the Marittima cruise terminals:

Take the Alilaguna Blue Line airport boat to the Zattere
stop, which is the second stop from the cruise basin. (The fare will be
about half of the fare to the airport.)
